Well Hello juandel,

:tu: :tu: :tu: So much to like :tu: :tu: :tu:

This is marvelous, so much to see, so many little touches that bring it all together!!! I could list dozens of things such as the holiday moon, how Santa Mouse is dropping in, the cheesy presents, the wing wrapped pullers, the distant lights and the use of varied lighting - it holds so well. Excellent attention to detail.

Way to go juandel :tu: :tu: :tu: :tu:

I love it, Juandel! So very whimsical, and a totally unique vision.

It seems like this is the most intricate picture that you've created yet, too. Many, many details, which keep me going back to it over and over.

I've seen it before, of course, and thanx for the preview, but the final pic is the sweetest thing. you've outdone yourself, hansl!

Ultra delightful to see. You have created details that I couldn't even think of doing. The snow is the best. I love it when it hangs on the trees like that. I have a cat that sleeps with her paws up also, just like these little mice. Thanks for the cheerfulness :)

here i feel well Juandel I think I can go
to bed now ..(in your picture)it's warm there and I feel
"geborgen" how would you translate that??
anyway it's a picture which makes me feel
good to have a rest during my journey into
an absolute new life :) :) :confused: :)

[juandel]

thank you all for your most likouli comments, my friends :D this was the first time i took more time than a few hours for a project, trying to discipline myself with markers and all (in the end there were more markers all over the canvas than stars in the sky :D but i missed to place a few, anyway) and i am very happy that you enjoyed it.

i did this kind of drawings (much details, tiny characters, lots to look at (in fact much more than in this one)) with color-pencils for the kids of my friends and this is the first one done digitally. :) i have not indulged much into modelling ever (so many other gorgeous z-features to explore), but i had to do so for this one and i think i am addicted now :D not that i think it to be good. but for a comparision, here is the greeting card that was done last year for zacademy, when those primitives came in handy for building a snowman :D (demomode, upper part and snowflakes done in photoshop):
